FIELD

The present invention relates to a handheld multi-tip scraping and moxibustion device.

BACKGROUND

Moxibustion is a treasure of the Chinese nation contributing to the world, and is a combination of thermal therapy and aromatherapy. Due to the limitation to the using tools thereof, its functions have not been fully utilized. Moxibustion produces a therapeutic effect by applying heat energy together with moxa smog containing wormwood oil to the body surface, the moxa smog is indispensable in the treatment, but excessive moxa smog spreading may cause a discomfort. The functions of scraping therapy comprising blood dredging, diaphoresis and activation of collaterals are combined with the moxibustion according to the present invention, so as to produce a new therapy: scraping and moxibustion. The pulled muscle, pulled tendon after exercise, and the muscle rigidity caused by long-term accumulation of muscle injuries are repaired. The scraping and moxibustion derive from a breakthrough application from Eastern wisdom, and it is safer, easier, and more efficient in repair of muscle than currently known muscle repair methods. The scraping and moxibustion enables the muscle and tendon to regain the best condition in a very short period of time, which is the best assistant for competitive sports, the repair process is a natural relaxation process, and after the repair, there will be no sequelae, such as future muscle aches and rigidity in the repair site by other methods. The head is the human body's command and main embodiment of appearance, and brain health is the most important part of human health. The vertex extrameridian acupoint of the human body (Sishengcong acupoint) has a special effect on mental illness, and has amazing adjustment effect on psychosis, vascular dementia and other serious illnesses. The problem about how to effectively transport the heat energy and moxa smog of the moxibustion to the acupoints and collaterals below the hairs without damage the hairs has not been solved, but the invention of the handheld multi-tip scraping and moxibustion device solves this problem. The fixed acupoint moxibustion is available, especially the moxibustion to five acupoints of Baihui and Sishencong at the same time, when the fixed acupoint moxibustion is conducted, the scraping and moxibustion device is fixed by an elastic tape, so as to be able to walk as usual, and the scraping and moxibustion device can also be held as a comb to conduct the scraping and moxibustion to the vertex and face. The searching of collaterals, scraping and moxibustion can be conducted throughout the body, and the therapeutic effect is quite amazing. The heat energy and the moxa smog are transmitted to the skin through the tip (the tip is internally provided with a through-cavity), and the heat energy makes the subject feel pleasant and comfortable in scraping and moxibustion. Moreover, various aromatherapy essential oils can also be evaporated separately to conduct the pioneering aromatherapy scraping therapy. In the invention, an enclosure cloth is used for wrapping such that only a tip surface is exposed. The enclosure cloth not only provides heat preservation and insulation to the scraping and moxibustion device, but also can adjust the burning speed and absorb the moxa oil in the moxa smog overflowing through the enclosure cloth. Only a small amount of moxa oil smog overflows through the through-cavity of the tip in use, and the air in the use environment can maintain comfort. A plurality of scraping and moxibustion devices can be connected into a long line or a surface through the hanging portions to conduct the moxibustion simultaneously, changing a harassing attack of a partisan troop into an annihilation war of an army group, so that the moxibustion effect is more comprehensive and more obvious. In the practice of scraping and moxibustion, there are individual cases with obvious therapeutic effects on facial darkness, pigmentation, hair oil, excessive dandruff, blood loss, early white hair, hair loss, facial paralysis, neurasthenia, insomnia, etc. The patented product of the handheld multi-tip scraping and moxibustion device is to allow more people to join the therapeutic practice, and an answer to whether it can finally cure the mental illnesses remains to be given through practice.

The moxibustion method is one of the external physiotherapy methods of traditional Chinese medicine, and can play a role in treating and preventing diseases, and the patient has a comfortable feeling during the treatment, so that it is very popular among patients. The treatment and health maintenance by the moxibustion method is an embodiment of a “comprehensive effect” according to the theory and practice of traditional Chinese medicine. At present, the state and society are paying more and more attention to traditional Chinese medicine, and various moxibustion devices have appeared, such as the Chinese invention patent with the publication No. CN203342032U, wherein a multi-acupoint adjustment moxibustion device is disclosed, which comprises a moxibustion tube, a support disc, a fixed flexible pipe and a fixing belt, the support disc is assembled to a front end of the fixed flexible pipe, and a rear end of the fixed flexible pipe is fixed with the moxibustion tube. The invention uses a multi-moxibustion tube structure, and the moxibustion can be conducted to 1 to 4 acupoints at the same time, which solves the problem that the moxibustion can only be conducted to one acupoint at a time. The invention uses the fixed flexible pipe to control the position of the moxibustion tube, the distance between the moxibustion tube and the acupoint can flexibly adjusted, and meanwhile, the fixing belt can fix the moxibustion device without the necessity of holing manually by a specially-assigned person, thereby saving the manpower.

However, the moxibustion device is complicated in structure with a high manufacturing cost, and moxibustion can only be conducted locally without the function of scraping. Moreover, the adjustment operation to the moxibustion position for different acupoints is inconvenient, the physiotherapy effect and efficiency are not good. The existing handheld moxibustion device can only be used in moxibustion application, and cannot be effectively used in application to the sites such as head due to the hair barrier.

In order to overcome the problems above, we have developed a handheld multi-tip scraping and moxibustion device.
